Well... depends on who you ask. I, personally, was more in the "about time!" camp. But I have met several programmers who didn't think they'd need those "newfangled features" at first. Especially in the "e

This is a really nice overview of the new Java 8 features. I like how this tutorial communicates mostly with code snippets and has "read more" links for most topics. If you are using Java and have not tried Lambda Expressions, met

Thanks, I updated my post to clarify what I meant. Disclaimer: English is not my mother tongue, so I am sometimes not precise enough.

I agree that 10 days is very short for what he did. But the other part of your comment, "He should serve at least 25 years too", does not sound right to me either. I think that the primary goal of court scentences should not be re

...which could be much more expensive and sill not find the error you'd need to defend the client. You'd essentially be black box testing without even knowing what kind of errors you want to find. Or am I missing something?

I could imagine that, when you take the CO2 from the air, you could build those plants in remote locations, where it is difficult to get fuel right now. Like, in the desert. But I guess that would work only in theory, because those plants w

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I have not been talking about VW in particular. I've heared the rumor that "many car makers" do this...

by struppi 11y ago
Really? I've heard those rumors (that many car makers build cars that try to detect whether they are tested) years ago. The reasoning back then was that hybrid cars could cheat the results, by completely emptying their batteries during

The reaction of the French president is the right thing. It's not like he would be a political prisoner or something. There is a European arrest warrent against him. In Sweden, he would get a fair trial at a european court. If his case

Do you switch channels on your TV when the commercials start and switch back when the show resumes? Blocking online ads is basically the same. i.e. perfectly legitimate. Only you hurt the creator more online, since the advertisers can now m

IIRC, in Austria, police CAN ask you about your name and home address at any time, and they can even bring you to the police office if they don't believe you and you don't have an ID to prove it. Even though we don't have an

And you think the cities would have insisted in fare lock-ins, had they operated the street cars themselves?
139.
by struppi 11y ago
The reasons sound very compelling, but I think one reason is missing. I would suggest that the main reason streetcars survived in many cities in Europe, but not in the USA is: Here in Europe, public transport is not done by privately owned

Worth reading. I especially love the section about estimates. I have seen all those problems at my clients in real projects. This is what got me interested in #NoEstimates in the first place ( http://devteams.at/how_i_got_int

IIRC it does not help because the trees will decay into CO2 after they die. So you'd basically have to bury the dead treas if you want to prevent the carbon from entering the atmosphere again.

Who says that they have to be taken like dogma? Sometimes the one-liners are just easy to remember. Often they are funny. They can be a great tool to quickly illustrate a point or start a conversation. The one liners can never replace a con

A nice article, and I think I should add the book to my (already too large) to-read pile. I totally agree with "DRY might not be great in all cases" - In tests, it's often better to make each single test as expressive as poss
